A provocative look at architecture-"exceptionally intelligent and
original" (Jonathan Yardley, "The Washington Post Book World")
Deyan Sudjic-"probably the most influential figure in architecture
you've never heard of" - argues that architecture, far from being
auteur art, must be understood as a naked expression of power. From
the grandiose projects of Stalin and Hitler to the "theme park"
excess of today's presidential libraries, Sudjic goes behind the
scenes of history's great manipulators of building propaganda-and
exposes Rem Koolhaas, Frank Gehry, and other architects in a
disturbing new light. This controversial book is essential reading
for all those interested in the power of architecture-or the
architecture of power.
